Whether you're emotionally indifferent towards "Chalk" or absolutely enamored, the meticulousness behind the production is clear as a bright blue day. And that's only one of the reasons this is so compelling.

"Chalk" is imbued in a range of synth textures including arps and a heavily processed vocal sample which seems to become catchier the more it repeats. I can't neglect to mention the subtle presence of live strings as they supply the high ends with that much needed glimmer. If you're captivated by the works of Tourist, then this is definitely for you.
